About Whitney
I was very fortunate to grow up in a home with two tremendously supportive parents. My parents have been married 36 years, and are still going strong! I have one younger brother, and while he is several years younger than me, we have become very close over the last couple of years. He is recently married, and his wife is amazing! Growing up, I was a determined, motivated kid. Whether it was school, band, or piano lessons--I worked very hard to achieve my goals. I ultimately graduated from college and medical school, and I am now a practicing General Surgeon. It is the BEST job in the world! It can be challenging and stressful, but being able to help my patients is so worth it! Even though my job keeps me busy at times, I always make family time a priority. My favorite hobby is spending time with our son Jack. Being a working mom and wife sometimes requires that I wear many hats... but my Mom hat is by far the most important and fun. I also enjoy cooking (I am vegetarian), gardening, mani/pedi time and spending time with friends and family.
